Chris Gunning's Yorkshire Theme (1982) would have to be my favourite, closely followed by Tyne Tees' Three Rivers Fantasy.


Aye, would tend to agree with that. YTV's was a masterpiece, and TTTV's just beautiful. Brings a lump to my throat every time I hear it.

Why they had to spoil the version used on Calendar I don't know -- it still sounds fresh today (apart from the synthy bit in the middle, that probably could have done with a slight remix). The 80s one was splendid.


yes the 80's YTV one and the Central startup was my favourite, its a shame these days there's nothing these days, the pride of regional ITV only a distant memory now.
